Imagine the possibilities....


Most of you guys know i manage a car wash. Well today, one of my vendors came in and asked if he knew anybody that needed a sponsor, because their company is looking to get into the 'car show' aspect and showcase their products. Well, of course i know somebody. ME!!! I took him out, showed him the car, and he liked what he saw. He's gonna go talk to the higher ups and recommend me for sponsorship, and he said they'd like that fact that im' a manager at a place they already deal with. Sweet! He asked me what i needed done, and the list goes like this-

1- Fully built H22 swap. 5spd tranny swap, and of course...boost, FMIC, all the good stuff.

2. Re-do interior- All new leather, maybe some racing seats, all new carpets, some blue suede inserts.

3. Custom Fiberglass trunk

I ll keep you guys posted and let you know how it turns out!!

 

a new h22 w/ boost. Thats HUGE! GOOD LUCK MAN!!

 

holey god...good luck

 

I love H22's. That will be the icing on the cake for you Katana18.

 

bastard....


nah, just joke. congraatts man! thats fuckin awesome

 

I can't wait til your car gets featured in a magazine...I'll be like I was over his house yo! He got my rims also!

But anyways that's awesome news...You definitely deserve it bro. I think since your gonna be doing all this maybe get someone to do blackhousing custom projector cough vxcl cough.

Katana is my god.

 

r u planning to "use" the turboed h22? with ur bags?

 

I'm sure i will. I'm not getting rid of the air, so i guess i ll have to use it. I mean, im' not gonna take it to the drag strip or go illegal street racing at night, but it ll be nice to know its there.

 

In all honesty, i really dont like black housings or projectors. I like the way it is stock, becuz it matches with my clears and the trim really well. Plus, there is no black on the car, so i think it'd kinda look out of place.

 

good luck w/ the free stuff, a lot of people talk a big game in this industry. If you do get a bunch of free shit congrats.

 

Good luck man. I hope you do wel and inspire some manufacturers to start building some more mods for our car...........a guy can dream can't he.

 

Thats what you say now, but if u pulled up next to you i bet you'd run to the nearest ATM to buy em off me. Especially at night. The black housing is pretty much a necessity to stop glare from the xenons.

Anyways good luck! You are making it impossible for me to keep up with you.

 

See i mean, i dunno, i just dont think they'd look right on my car. I like the 'cleared out' look. Luckily, its factory. Also, i've never personally been a fan of projectors. Dont get me wrong, i think it looks tight as hell on yours and others cars, but i dont think it'd look good on mine. I like how the headlight has the chrome inside of it, and it matches the clear corners on the bottom. I think black would kinda throw that off.




I just think that it looks better like that with the chrome inside that matches the trim.

 

i agree, yours looks better like it is

 

Congrats Katana thats pretty tight. Hope it works out but you know youll get it I mean look at you whip.

 

 

i agree x1516445456456

 

My headlamps are completely chrome inside. I wished you lived near me becuase I would swap my headlamps onto your car and put ambers in your bumper just to show you your car would look even sleaker. IF any of your pics are simialr to mine I will def PS it. Its just one of those things you dont realize until you do it. When I had clear bumper lenses I never imagined putting ambers back in.

 

^ lighting god

(the pictures prove it)

 

see


I feel this looks 1000x classier, cleaner, and sexier then my oem lamps and clears. Clears just cheapen the look of the cl. I may just be tainted by my hatred for all aftermarket clear headlamps and gaytezzas.

 

i love your setup vxcl..but with erics color and exterior...i think that the all clear looks good..maybe if his was black could be a possibility...but with blue....all clear looks good just IMO

 

I think on the blue the ambers will look funny. On black and gunmetal cars, its the only way to go.

 

nice job katana

how in the heck will the sponsor you for that much? a h22 seap with a 5spd ranny will run ya a good 2g at least then boosting it is even more

then interior and the trunk, how much money is this company looking to invest to get seen in the import scene?

what do they sell?a nd whats the company name?

 

they probably won't

 

Why not? The air ride isn't going to hurt him. If he drags at a strip, or any smooth road, you have the advantage. You can play with the cylinder pressure until you find what gives you the best traction. For example, low in the front, high PSI in the back will reduce the weight transfer and loss of torque off the line.

 

I was assuming from other comments on here that having air ride is not the best when racing... so I guess that does not include dragging because that is just going straight.

I think the 97 grill will look good on ur car katana... urs too VXCL.

 

i went through 2 97 grills and the 98+ is just sleaker to me.

remember this




im embarassed to even post this


I would not be caught dead in my cl if it still looked like that.

now this


what do you think?

 

I think the 97 grill with no blue acura symbol and no blue bulbs and no blue fogs and no gutter guard grills.. would look good.

the 97 grill on your car now would look nice... if you wanted a black chrome finish and do the trim on the windows too... that would look nice.

as for katana's would add a little more silver to the front of the car and match the window trim and his "factory cleared" lol me too headlight housing and the clear corners. This is in fact why I am trying to trade my 99 for a 97.

but then again it is just my opinion.

EDIT: oh and you lost the front license plate that is good too... I can't stand mine on there but I guess it is a necessity in california... is putting the license plate in the front window legal?

 

true but any grill on my car without all that crap would look better now. ahahaha. I had an all black 97 grill also before i put the 99 in. the reason i went with the 98+ is because to me the wing in the 97 disrupts the body lines and the 98+ has a bigger A. If i still had a 97 I would hook you up. sorry man.

 

I actually got rid of my 97 grille. I like the 98's more. As for the sponsorship, i dont think they're gonna do ALL of that, maybe just one. But i am trying to pick up more sponsors along the way. I gotta get other people to start paying for my shit!

 

Good luck !!!!!

 

wait..i want sponsers.. are they going to slap a big fat sticker on your hood that says "Billy Bobs Turtle Wax".

 

If they give me a turbo H22, they can slap whatever they want on the hood.

 

Congrats....All that hard work on ur car is gonna pay off

 

i think it doesnt look that bad...i actually wanted to do the mesh covering of the grills and the fog lights...im guessin ud be against that VX huh lol

 

you ain't getting a turbo or motor, if your lucky you'll get it at cost

:P


if you're lucky

 

i want mad stickers yo!

 

98 grill is the way to go

 

yea i would too... ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh h22 turbo
